I’m getting my new Window 11 - soon to be Linux - laptop next week. Can’t wait to get steam going on it!

I recently did the same. Had an opportunity to buy a laptop at a good price, and I immediately swapped the m.2 drive with a blank for Linux Mint. There's definitely been a learning curve and a lot of web searching for tweaks and fixes, but the overall user experience has been great. I'll very likely be swapping to Linux on my desktop soon.
